The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Li Zining not only came by himself, but also called a group of merchants and gentry who didn't know what was going on.

She didn't say there was anything fun to see, but she said they were going to visit Yuan Shuxun together.

But when they arrived at Yuan Shuxun's mansion, the doorman's nostrils were turned upward as usual, waiting for the doorman's package.

Li Zining slapped him in the face.

"Crack!"

The doorman was stunned, and immediately became furious, pointing at Li Zining: "You are a villain and a woman who cannot be raised, and a rotten tree cannot be carved. How dare you come to the Governor's Mansion to run wild? Don't even think about leaving today..."

Li Zining had already winked at Dadong. Dadong stepped forward, swatted away Menzi's outstretched hand, and turned around to whip his fist.

The turning whip fist at this time was all from Zhao Chuanxin, but it was learned and used by Li Zhitao and the others.

Menzi's head was buzzing and he leaned against the doorpost motionless.

The merchants and gentry who followed were dumbfounded: "Aren't you here to visit Governor Yuan?"

They also said that Li Zining had connections, so they came to show off their faces and become familiar with him.

After all, Yuan Shuxun is a senior official in Xinjiang.

Li Zining didn't answer, and just said: "Go in and take a look, something big is going to happen."

If they had not come to the scene, most of the people present would have been able to hold back and not wade into the muddy waters.

But as he watched Li Zining and his guards break into the Governor's Mansion, if he didn't go in and eat melon, he wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.

When they arrived at the inner chamber, they heard Zhao Chuanxin say: "I want to condemn you."

"..."

Condemn what?

When they went in and took a look, my dear, it was all gold, silver and jewelry.

Yuan Shuxun's beard trembled with anger: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhao Chuanxin said with a smile: "Old guy, Qiu Jialiang didn't give you less. It seems that the salt affairs of the province are making a lot of money, and he actually bribed you with two million taels of silver."

All the merchants and gentry took a breath of cold air.

"I don't know what you are talking about, get out of here."

However, Zhao Chuanxin snatched the name card handed over by Qiu Jialiang: "Isn't it all written on it? Why are you quibbling? The amount is so huge that it is staggering. I am really afraid that I will speak beautiful Chinese."

Yuan Shuxun looked at the gentry and merchants who broke into the inner house, his lips trembled, and he felt that his character was about to collapse.

He said harshly: "Someone forcibly sent these things into the house, how do I know what they are?"

"Oh?" Zhao Chuanxin chuckled: "You don't know, right? Well, I'll take the stuff. It has nothing to do with you anyway."

With that said, Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand, and the thing disappeared under everyone's noses.

Yuan Shuxun's face turned pale when he saw it.

Two million taels of silver...

He murmured: "I should return the things given by others. How can I let you take them away? No matter what deception you use, return the things in full immediately!"

I was so upset that I actually said these words in front of everyone, which was a bit shameless to ask for money.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

All the merchants clicked their tongues.

After hearing this, Yuan Shuxun's face turned purple and he was so angry that he didn't die.

Zhao Chuanxin continued with a smile: "I dug up 900,000 taels of silver in the cellar of your residence in Shanghai. It seems that it has nothing to do with you. Was it buried by someone else?"

Yuan Shuxun staggered back, his face turned from purple to blue, his mouth opened like a dehydrated fish, and he pointed at Zhao Chuanxin tremblingly: "You, you, who are you..."

Zhao Chuanxin dragged him to the Taishi chair and sat down, crossing his legs: "Old man, I am Zhao Chuanxin. You are not afraid of death. Let me kill you to fulfill your reputation of being a breeze and not afraid of power. I want to do the opposite. In other words, I’ll let you live, but it’s up to you whether you feel uncomfortable when the money is gone.”

Yuan Shuxun was so angry that a mouthful of old blood was stuck in his throat, and he didn't know whether to spray it or not.

The gentry and merchants were in an uproar.

It turns out that the newly appointed governor also buried money in Shanghai.

It seems that officials, like their merchants, all like to collect silver.

They couldn't help but talk about it.

Zhao Chuanxin took out a blackened silver ingot from the secret realm and threw it in his palm: "This is the silver dug out of your house in Shanghai. Does it look familiar?"

Yuan Shuxun finally couldn't hold it back and spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

"Wow……"

This caused all the gentry and merchants to exclaim.

It seemed true, I was so distressed that I vomited blood.

Looking at Zhao Chuanxin again, everyone was frightened.

You must not offend Zhao Tuzi, otherwise you will lose both your life and money.

After Yuan Shuxun vomited a mouthful of old blood, the depression in his heart eased a little, and he felt a little better. He said, "I don't know what it means. I don't know what it means. Zhao Chuanxin, please go ahead. I won't argue with you."

Zhao Chuanxin raised his eyebrows: "Huh? Is it possible that you have more money buried in the mansions of Tianjin Wei and Shandong? Well, I'll dig it out right away."

Yuan Shuxun stood up suddenly, his face turned purple again: "You..."

Zhao Chuanxin slapped the case, and the chicken-wing wooden table was smashed by his punch: "Old man, you embezzled two to three hundred thousand in Xiangtan; you can get seven to eight hundred thousand a year in Shanghai Road; a few years ago, the five ministers When I went abroad, I was making a fuss in Tianjin. I heard that you had bought tens of thousands of pounds from the funds and exchanged them. In Shandong, you also squandered a lot of money and threatened to ban gambling. Qiu Jialiang, the gambler, was frightened. Quickly pay a bribe of 300,000 yuan. Qiu Jianliang tasted the benefits and gave you another 2 million yuan to take over the salt affairs of the province. You are really making a lot of money, and you are almost as good as the prince Aixinjueluo Yikuang. Fortunately, you are finally a capable official and have done a lot of practical things. But the bad thing is that you messed with the wrong person."

The gentry and wealthy merchants present were extremely shocked.

It turns out that Yuan Shuxun, who has become famous in recent years, is actually this kind of person.

Yuan Shuxun's face turned pale with horror at this moment: "Zhao Chuanxin, you are so slanderous. If you have the guts, kill me..."

"Hey, hey, don't frame yourself there." Zhao Chuanxin smiled and held his hands around: "Everyone here has seen that Zhao didn't even touch a finger on him. You old man, what do you think? It's so beautiful. You just want to gain money and spread a good reputation when you are the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. This is the reason why you interfere with Ao Island. If you don't fucking look in the mirror, you will. Is it worthy?”

Li Zining was shocked: So the old guy actually had this idea?

She was still a little tender, but Li Ziyu noticed it early on, so he called Zhao Chuanxin.

It was just that Zhao Chuanxin was extremely busy at the time and the matter was not urgent, so he gave up.

Now that Zhao Chuanxin was taking action, Li Ziyu immediately contacted Zhao Chuanxin and asked him to handle it.

This matter involves a wide range of things. After all, Zhao Chuanxin drove away the Portuguese and allowed Xuantian Sect to occupy Ao Island.

Nominally, Ao Island should be returned to the Qing court.

But even Zhang Renjun doesn't dare to have this idea. How can you, Yuan Shuxun, do it?

Those present were whispering.

Yuan Shuxun was desperate.

A lifetime of fame was ruined in one day.

Zhao Chuanxin took off his sunglasses and said to everyone: "Follow me into the house, and I will show you something."

Yuan Shuxun's expression changed, and he blocked the door to prevent entry: "Let's see who dares!"

Zhao Chuanxin came to him and said, "Fuck the guy next door. Is there anything in the world that I, Zhao Chuanxin, don't dare to do?"

Yuan Shuxun felt a violent aura from Zhao Chuanxin who was so close.

Regardless of whether he was ready to die or not, the two forces were still fighting at this moment.

The problem is that Zhao Chuanxin's murder may not be the first to do so.

Bone removal and skin removal are also available, and there is no shortage of cuts with a thousand cuts.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled sinisterly: "Dadong, take this old guy aside and watch carefully. Don't hurt Governor Yuan. Even if he hits you, you have to endure it."

Dadong smiled ferociously: "Master, don't worry, my body and bones are strong, it doesn't matter if I let this old guy beat me."

With that said, he stepped forward and forcibly supported Yuan Shuxun and pulled him aside.

Yuan Shuxun struggled to get away, and his beard was shaking violently.

He watched helplessly as Zhao Chuanxin and his people filed in.

This time, Zhao Chuanxin did not dig the ground.

Because the entrance to the cellar was still exposed, Yuan Shuxun knew that there was still a sum of money that had not arrived, and there was no time to bury the money.

Zhao Chuanxin opened the panel at the entrance to the cellar and raised his fingers: "Who wants to go down and take a look first? Zhao said something ugly beforehand. You are only allowed to look at it, but not to take it."

One person stood out from the crowd and said: "Mr. Zhao, I would like to go down and have a look."

"Okay, you old arms and legs, don't fall down."

After the man went down, he came up a short time later, his face full of wonder.

The others couldn't hold it any longer: "I want to see it too..."

Finally, it was Li Zining. Li Zining came up and said: "There are at least 400,000 taels of silver in the cellar."

Zhao Chuanxin smiled slightly: "Ao Dao Xuantian Sect has reported merits, and these four hundred thousand taels belong to you. Each department will receive rewards according to their merits."

"Yes, Master." Li Zining smiled happily.

Yuan Shuxun was desperate: "Zhao Chuanxin, I will fight with you..."

"Fight with me?" Zhao Chuanxin said happily: "In this case, I will give you some time, and you can find another 10,000 helpers, and you may have some chance of winning."

Yuan Shuxun: "..."

The people present thought for a second: It seems to be right.

With an army of 10,000 people, they may not be able to defeat Zhao Chuanxin...

A sense of powerlessness arose spontaneously.

Killing is heartbreaking.

Yuan Shuxun's body suddenly twitched violently, leaving Dadong at a loss: "Master, I didn't touch him, it was him..."

While talking, Yuan Shuxun fell to the ground and tilted his head.

Dadong tried his breathing and said in frustration: "Dead..."

He was so angry that he was pissed to death by Zhao Chuanxin, or he was frightened to death by his own notorious reputation.

Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly said: "You have all seen Ang. His death has nothing to do with me. It's the old man who can't think about it. Damn, so, money is an external thing, don't take it too seriously."

Everyone thought: What you said is very light. If it were me, I would be very distressed.

Li Zining asked quietly: "Master, what should we do now?"

"What should I do? Have someone report it to the official and tell the whole story."

Li Zining glanced at the cellar in embarrassment: "But does it take time to transport such a large sum of money?"

"Zhuo, what are you afraid of?" Zhao Chuanxin disagreed: "Who dares to touch the money that I received based on my ability? Feel free to move it."

"..."

…

Reporters quickly reported the "mooncake incident."

There are five newspapers with the title - "Moral Kidnapping".

The headlines of two newspapers were - "Don't ignore good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil because they are small."

The two newspapers took a different approach by repeating Zhao Chuanxin's simple economic principles.

Lugang Town newspapers have begun to popularize the vernacular.

The newspaper said: Since the establishment of the Lugang Town Charity Association, the donations have reached more than two million taels of silver. Only one-third of the donations went to Lugang Town, and the rest was paid by Zhao Chuanxin. Over the years, countless people in the Liangjiang area, the river area near Changchun Prefecture, and the Hankou typhoon disaster area have benefited. This year, when the Yalu River and Tumen River main and tributary basins were flooded, Zhao Chuanxin donated money and went to the front line of the disaster to save people. He personally rescued more than a hundred people and indirectly rescued hundreds of disaster victims. Thousands of families built ancestral temples and tens of thousands of households offered tablets, calling him a living god. In my humble opinion, even if he was reveling every night, he deserved it, otherwise how could good people be rewarded? Confucius once said to Zigong: You have lost it. From now on, people in Lu will not redeem people. If you take the gold, you will not lose anything. If you don't take the gold, you will not redeem people. Now, people are partial to one side and believe everything they hear. They are jealous of the rich. What good deeds have you done? It's ridiculous...

The newspaper was published immediately, which attracted widespread discussion from all walks of life.

After this incident, Zhao Chuanxin's personality was completely established.

He killed people and set fires, and he was rude and swearing, but it did not prevent him from being respected.

The reporter's dizziness had not yet faded, and then he heard another big melon.

I'm so angry...Zhao Chuanxin kept making trouble, which could make the reporter run his legs off.

Zhao Chuanxin's personality was strengthened, but Yuan Shuxun, who was incorruptible, was overturned!

The reporter visited Guangdong gentry and merchants door to door, and learned that Yuan Shuxun was exposed as a hypocrite by Zhao Chuanxin on the spot and robbed the bribe money, and was angry to death on the spot.

This incident was more sensational than the mooncake incident, not only in Guangdong and Guangxi, but also in the whole country.

Many corrupt officials were so scared that they dug out their silver immediately, either investing it, depositing it in foreign banks, or storing it elsewhere.

The Shenbao joked: After Yuan Shuxun's corruption and abuse of power were exposed, foreign banks and merchants made a lot of profit, and the support and support of the wealthy Chinese people and the frequent exchanges between the two countries were shocking, and the people in the market talked about it. There are also countless people who bought real estate and opened shops, which is in line with the economic law that Zhao Tangong talked about...

Aisin-Gioro Zaifeng was stunned by the amount of silver that Zhao Chuanxin dug out from Yuan Shuxun's house after hearing that Zhao Chuanxin dug out silver from Yuan Shuxun's house: "Governing the country is difficult, but millions of taels of silver were found in the home of Yuan Shuxun, a senior official. How can Zhao Chuanxin take it away? The governor is the governor of the court, and the official is the official appointed by the court. Why does Zhao Chuanxin have the right? Yuan Shuxun is also a loser, and he was angered to death by Zhao Chuanxin. If he died later, things would be easier."

In fact, he was incompetent. He wanted to seize power from the Han people and concentrate military and political power, but in the end, the new nobles of various factions seized power for personal gain, causing serious internal divisions.

Xu Shichang, who had already rushed to the capital to take up his post, said: "Regent, now is a time of trouble, and we can't work together. Zhao Tan Gong is a person who is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. It is better to take a long-term view and work it out slowly."

Zaifeng sighed and paced with his hands behind his back: "Alas, I thought I would clarify the administration of the Qing Dynasty. Although the ministers were hired in an exceptional manner, they were strictly examined and recommended by internal and external officials. Unexpectedly, this Yuan Shuxun is a bribe-seeking person. It's really terrible. Bu Wu, you have an old relationship with Zhao Chuanxin. In my opinion, you should ask him for the bribe money."

Xu Shichang: "..."

He had long seen the fact that the Qing Dynasty was in its twilight years. In the original history, he was trying to please both sides and offend no one.

Now it has become a three-sided catering, and Zhao Chuanxin must be considered extra.

Xu Shichang often thought about whether Zhao Chuanxin would openly rebel when he was tossing and turning.

Everyone in the world doesn't think Zhao Chuanxin is a wise ruler, but if Zhao Chuanxin really rebels, I'm afraid at least those military men will have to obey him.

Who doesn't know that he is the god of war Zhao Tuzi?

Fortunately, after several contacts, Xu Shichang didn't think that Zhao Chuanxin would rebel.

In fact, Xu Shichang couldn't figure out what Zhao Chuanxin was after.

Whether reading history or looking at the ambitious people around him, who doesn't take power for personal gain?

Even Zhang Zuolin is like this, let alone Yuan...

It is true that Zhao Chuanxin took power for personal gain, but it's nonsense to say that he took power.

Zhao Chuanxin just threw his hands and ran around the map, just like a jungler.

He is good at building a makeshift team, and after building it, he throws it aside and lets it grow like weeds.

It would be strange if this could succeed.

He didn't know that Zhao Chuanxin didn't care, but first, he couldn't manage it, second, he didn't have the ability, and third, time was limited.

That character is not suitable for being an emperor, otherwise he would be a tyrant.

Zhao Chuanxin positioned himself as a paperhanger.

He could paste as much as he could, the world would never be worse.

Aixinjueluo Zaifeng saw Xu Shichang silent and raised his eyebrows: "You don't want to?"

Xu Shichang's heart tightened: "Not so, I'm thinking about countermeasures."

"Don't go, hurry up and do it, don't wait until he spends all the money and regrets it, you must know that Zhao Chuanxin has made a lot of noise in various places this year."

Xu Shichang retreated in response.

He first sent a telegram to Li Ziyu in Macau Island, and Li Guangzong told him that Zhao Chuanxin had left.

He sent a telegram to Li Guangzong in Hong Kong Island, and Li Guangzong told him that Zhao Chuanxin didn't show up at all, took the mooncakes and left, and the two sides didn't meet.

He sent a telegram to Hankou Juanwang Technical College, and Liu Huaqiang was distributing mooncakes to reporters.

The reporter was speechless: "Why didn't you give us the gifts before the interview?"

Liu Huaqiang said seriously: "Our principal hates fraud the most. Giving gifts to you after the event is friendship; giving gifts before the event is called cheating."

The reporters were in awe.

It must be said that Liu Huaqiang has been in the position of student union president for a long time, and he still has something.

Soon he received a telegram from Xu Shichang, and Liu Huaqiang was somewhat flattered.

After Zaifeng came to power, he seized power from the Han people and concentrated the military and political affairs in the hands of a few families.

However, Xu Shichang was an exception. Not only was he promoted to co-organizer of the university, he was also awarded the post of Minister of Military Aircraft and regained control of the central government.

Xu Shichang sent a telegram to Liu Huaqiang, and his tone was quite polite.

Liu Huaqiang knew that this was all for Zhao Chuanxin's sake, but he couldn't be more proud of it - I, Liu Huaqiang, am also a figure now. Who dares to compete with me, Liu Huaqiang, for three acres of land in Hankou?

But he regretfully told Xu Shichang that after holding the press conference and leaving the mooncakes, Zhao Chuanxin left.

Xu Shichang asked around, but Zhao Chuanxin was not there.

But I found out that the 90,000 mooncakes that Zhao Chuanxin bought were originally for the Lugang Town Insurance Team, Lubin Prefecture civil servants, the Gray Ax Army, the Yanbian Backwater Army, the Adjudication Corps of Hong Kong and Macao Islands, and the peacekeepers of Sakhalin Island. The army is waiting for these people.

After such a calculation, Xu Shichang was horrified: Oh my god, it turns out that Zhao Chuanxin has so many people under his command?

If you give him another ten years, won't his military strength exceed that of the new army?

Xu Shichang had no doubts about Zhao Chuanxin's ability to train troops.

Where is Zhao Chuanxin?

…

Zhao Chuanxin first spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with Miao Cuihua, setting up a table outside the villa to worship the moon.

Jiang Mingxin pointed at the moon and said, "Oh dear, there is a jade rabbit on it. I can even see the rabbit ears."

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and smiled: "There are pits all over there. There is no grass in the pits, and the rabbits will starve to death."

Jiang Mingxin nodded: "Yes, so during the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will feed it moon cakes. With so many people across the country feeding it, one meal is worth a year..."

I'm... Zhao Chuanxin was convinced: "What you said makes sense. But the moon with the Jade Rabbit is very expensive."

Jiang Mingxin scratched his head: "Ah? My dear, can the moon still be bought with money?"

"Yes, haven't you heard? The moon on the fifteenth day is sixteen round."

Miao Cuihua burst out laughing when she saw Zhao Chuanxin talking nonsense seriously.

After Zhao Chuanxian coaxed Miao Cuihua to sleep, he teleported back to Lubin Mansion without stopping to find Rebecca Levi.

Rebecca Levi's face was full of resentment: "Sir, you have been out for a long time!"

Zhao Chuanxin placed the offering table in the courtyard, sighed and said, "Yes, the Master said on the river - the deceased is like a man, and he does not give up day and night."

Rebecca Levi didn’t quite understand the meaning: “Did Confucius say this? What does it mean?”

"It means that Confucius said that as long as a truly powerful person stands on the riverside, the corpses of his enemies will float down the current one by one, day and night!"

"..." Rebecca Levi said with emotion: "Isn't that more powerful than you?"

Tang Qunying's homesickness was stirred up by Zhao Chuanxin.

She sneered: "My lord is really more naughty than Benjamin."

Benjamin Goldberg and Gan Fan were looking up at the moon. They shook their heads when they heard this: "There is bright moonlight in front of the bed, probably because of the frost on the ground. Looking up at the bright moon, looking down at my hometown. Master, aunt, master, you say, this poem of mine is How’s that?”

Just when Tang Qunying was about to speak, Zhao Chuanxin patted his head: "Oh, Master, I haven't read much, so I don't understand it very well, but when I hear this rhyme, it's great. It's true that famous teachers make great disciples."

Gan Fan looked at the master and apprentice in astonishment: "Woof woof woof..."

Zhao Chuanxin put his arm around Rebecca Levi's waist: "I think the Jade Rabbit is almost done eating. Let's go back to the house and have some fun."

Tang Qunying blushed.

Rebecca Levi asked stupidly: "What do you mean?"

"Dunlun!"

"..."

When Zhao Chuanxin was busy, he felt that the power of faith had reached a higher level again.

It turned out to be the Gray Ax Army, the Backwater Army, the Peacekeeping Bureau, the Insurance Team, the students, the Adjudication Corps, the Peacekeeping Army, etc., and now they all ate the mooncakes he sent.

No more, no less, just one pack per person, six yuan per pack.

Don't underestimate a pack of mooncakes, it has a powerful effect on inviting people to buy.

Others were fine, but when Neng Chengwen ate the mooncakes, tears welled up in his eyes.

Looking up at the full moon in the sky, my heart felt like a knife.

His hometown is Hebei, and he has been away from Guan since he was a child. He still has brothers and sisters at home. There are too many children to eat, so he goes out to work in the mountains and into a village.

Later, he hid in Tibet and was captured on Sakhalin Island.

The island is not a place for people to live.

The convicts would have felt inferior because of their status. When others asked them what they did, they would answer - working.

When asked about their previous identities, many idiots said: "I was born a soldier."

Over and over again, he said the same thing.

In May, the ice on the island has not yet melted. When the ice melts and the road surface is cleared, the silt can reach up to the knees. The coldness is bone-chilling, causing the joints to swell. It hurts so much every time it rains and cloudy.

In just two years, he suffered from many problems.

After eating the mooncakes and looking at the moon in the sky, Neng Chengwen sighed: "Whether I asked you to kill me at the beginning or now, it's all worth it. The mooncakes are so delicious..."

Then, he silently took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Levitan: "Send someone to deliver the letter to the Russian soldiers on the other side of the river valley. Damn it, tell them that if they don't pay the fine and withdraw their troops, they will bear the consequences."
